Whole Grains for the Whole Family |
Struggling to get your children to enjoy whole grains? Try these ideas to make nutrition fun and appetizing:
- For the little ones, use a funky cookie cutter to cut fun shapes out of your child’s favorite sandwiches.
- Look for whole grain cereals. During a healthy breakfast, make a game out of looking for whole grain messages on the cereal box.
- Kids tend to copy their parents’ habits. So, parents, it is up to you set the example early by eating healthy yourselves.
- Try mixing and matching your child’s favorite toppings. How about a peanut butter and banana sandwich made with whole grain bread? Let your child’s imagination run wild.
- Kids like to help out and feel grown up. Have your child help you in the kitchen to make mini pizzas (spread pizza sauce, shredded cheese, and your child’s favorite pizza toppings on a whole wheat English muffin and you put it in the oven).
